April Weight Loss Challenge

I'm weighing in!!

SW: 226
CW: 220
GW: 210
UGW: 175

I plan to do this by exercising at least 3 times a week and eating less sweets and fried foods (near impossible to do while at school but it can be done!).

General Weigh in dates, feel free to change to whatever days work best for you-
4/5: 218.5
4/12: 221 -__-"
4/19:
4/26:
4/30:

SW: 111 kg
CW: 105.9 kg
GW for April: 102 kg (~ 8lbs to lose)
UGW: 75 kg

How I plan on doing it: Keep up with exercising and eating healthy. My semester break is over so I have to figure out how to make things work all together. Hence the relatively meager goal.

April 5th: 105.5 kg, down 0.4 kg (as expected, since I've been sick for the last week and haven't been able to hit the gym)
April 12th: 105.7 kg, up 0.3 kg <-- whelp, I need to work harder to make school + fitness work together better, so hopefully next week I'll be out of the red and down some.

I know I am a little late but I am in!

SW:185
CW: 158
GW for April: 150
UGW: 130

How do I plan to achieve this goal?
Same as I've been doing...eating clean, good-fuel foods, keeping the calories at some deficit, keeping up with the weight training, at least 3 times a week. Hooping, dancing, spin classes, running, yoga etc...usually 5 times a week, and when it gets warmer here, skating, kayaking, bicycling... lots of outdoors activities.

Sorry I haven't kept up with posting on this challenge. I had hit a plateau for some long time, but finally lost another couple of pounds. Soooooo...

Would love to join this Challenge! New month, new goals!

SW: 161
CW: 144.4
GW: 139 (For April)
UGW: 135?

Additional goals: Show up and finish my first 5K I am running on April 20th!!! Eat less processed foods. No soda. More water. More fruits and vegetables. No emotional eating... Period. Watch sodium levels more closely. Enjoy the warmer weather. Possibly go bathing suit shopping by the end of the month? Be proud of myself for what I have already achieved and what I will achieve!

How I am going to achieve my goal: Log everything, don't restrict myself from foods I love which will prevent the need for me to cheat or overdo it, maintain a positive attitude (I know I can do this), finish 30DS by the middle of the month (starting Level 3 on Wednesday) then begin the Ripped in 30 DVD. Get outside more with my children! Reward myself more (no, not with food).

Weigh in Dates:

4/6 - 145.6
4/16 - 142.4
4/20
4/27
4/30

4/6 - Weighing in for the day. I am up 1.2 pounds but I started a new workout this week and my muscles are very sore! Not really going to worry about this slight gain. I can feel and see the changes happening to my body. Even if the scale is not going down, I am still getting stronger! I have managed to stick to all of my April goals!!! Any time I felt like eating my emotions this week, I popped in an exercise DVD instead and it seemed to do the trick. I actually lost my appetite when I was finished. I am proud of myself for what I have accomplished this week.

4/16 - Weighing in a couple days late! It has been an extremely crazy week!

Checking in today--

SW (4/6/2013): 212

GW for April: 208
New GW for April: 200
UGW: 120-130

Last week I wasn't sure if I should change my GW for April, but seeing as how I'm down a few more pounds since then, I'm going to change it. I would REALLLLYYYY like to be under 200 by graduation (which is on May 4th). So, I think I'm going to change my GW by April 30th to be 200 lbs, and then my goal weight for May 4th (graduation!) to be 199 lbs. I think I can do it (well, I hope I can)!!

How I'm going to get to my goal? Eat at regular times each day. This past week, I was going all day without eating (I've been pretty busy with school), and then would come home and eat a lot. Now, I didn't binge when I got home (woohoo!), but I've found that not regularly eating makes me puffy. Also, I'm going to keep up with the exercise.

Now to go study for a test... fun stuff...
